2011 Defender 90 Puma 2.4 HT Indus Silver

Windscreen washer twin jet head

I have lost the twin jet head on my 2011 Hardtop 90 (Puma engine) - just left with the spigot sticking out of the bulkhead. I see that the replacement unit is part no. LR061677 which is the head plus spigot that the fluid delivery tube is attached to. It looks as if you need to get behind the dashboard somehow to replace the whole unit. My question is can you just remove the head from the new unit and simply snap it onto the existing spigot which is in situ?

Yes. Soak the new one in hot water before separating, try the “search” key, a common problem, lots of info on here. Time is precious, waste it wisely...

You can, but at least on the older vehicles it had a habit of dismantling itself again. Not sure if the Puma ones are the same part, it's a newer LR.... part number. ---

Thanks, as always for the tips: I managed to separate the parts in hot water and re-attach to to what remained on the car (with some glue to try to keep in place).

Definitely saved time and effort

I hit the top of mine clean off with a foam brush back in the winter. I done exactly the same thing. Soak in hot water, line it up with what's left showing on the bulkhead and a smart tap with my hand and it clicked back into place 😁👍
